BTW, I continue to favor drug testing prior and during each challenge. It is a existing clause in the cast contract.[/quote]
That's funny because I can recall a few castmembers saying they have seen castmates openly doing drugs on challenges. And how is Tonya allowed to come back over and over? Has she been tested? lol.

Why would you thing Tonya has done something during a challenge?
BMP has never drug tested to my knowledge. Just because it is in the contract, does not mean that they do it.

If BMP actually did the drug testing there would not be enough cast mates left to do a challenge.

Well I'm sorry I guess I misunderstood you, but you brought it up in a way that suggests that they do test as a way to counter my comments about Kelly Anne and Robin. Obviously someone would gather from your post that they do do that. But now you say they never have, so that just further supports my observation and what other castmembers have said-that it is a possibility.
I was kind of joking about Tonya because she always seemed on drugs to me from BOTS2 on...There has been talk about Tonya's issues for years but I probably shouldn't bring it up too bluntly because you'll most likely say the people who said that "weren't serious". So let's just drop the discussion.
Do you work for the BMP? I'm asking because I'm new here and you seem to be a little technical about all of our observations perhaps because you're not allowed to say certain things? I get the feeling I'm offending a certain rule or I'm out of line for even discussing this. Would you like me to stop? lol. If so I'll respectfully stop.
This is getting off topic anyway. I still believe some of these castmembers have those problems, but I don't know them. You appear to know them well. Do you? Who are your favorites?

lol true! I remember hearing an interview with some castmembers (from years ago even before the Fresh Meat people started taking over) and they were saying how they have seen some of the biggest challenge regulars openly doing drugs and when asked to name who, they were just like "all you have to do is look around at the ones acting crazy, it's pretty obvious".

Ok! :beach:
Isabella, V1 is a lawyer, confidante of the cast and has his own media group from what I gather.

I'm asking you questions to determine the difference among 1) what you know to be factual, 2) what you have read that constitutes hearsay, 3) what in your own background makes this a topic of interest for you.
No, I don't work for BMP. Please note the little word under my name on the board...."Moderator." I'm also the Managing Director of a company called Vision 1 Media Group. I have long-standing personal relationships with many with the reality community. Reality TV is a substantial part of our business model.
You will find that I frequently pin people down on what they write here. Quite a few people have trouble determining between truth and fiction between real life and reality TV. Some have that difficulty intentionally, others do so quite innocently. We like to nail down the facts as frequently as possible, because that is what we hear draws most people to the site.

I do pay laywers for their advice, which I'm then free to ignore. It makes for a near-perfect universe when negotiating contracts on behalf of our clients.

Then my bad I remember in another thread a certain somebody said so. I forgot who at the moment. But yeah you're right its too much.

Lots of people say stuff, and way too many people believe what they read or see without using a critical eye.
I hope Casey fails at just about everything asked of the cast, since that is the only way she is entertaining. Besides having sexual relations, that is just expected.
[quote=rw/rrjunkie;76012]She "agreed" with Coral , doesn't mean she doesn't like Evelyn though.[/quote]
well if Katie agrres that Evelyn is fake she wouldn't like Evelyn. On that reunion she said she hates fake people
[quote=Henry;76163]When The Cast Arrive to Thailand? when they start to film? and when will be aired on MTV?
Thanks[/quote]
They arrived and started filming a while ago.
[QUOTE=IzzyBoo;76162]well if Katie agrres that Evelyn is fake she wouldn't like Evelyn. On that reunion she said she hates fake people[/QUOTE]
Let's put this to rest. While I can not comment on "The Pit" for contractual reasons, I can tell you as fact that Katie does not have a problem with Evelyn nor does she believe Evelyn is fake. Everyone has to play the game.
You may consider that Katie has spoken, so let's move on.
[quote=Dartagnan;75615]June 5th. This actually gives time for at least four more eliminations I think. Please let two of them be JEK and or Casey/Johanna. Wishful thinking I guess.[/quote]
Well, from the list I saw, there were 6 guy eliminations and 8 female (eliminations or leaves for other reasons). Unless there is a new twist where there are an uneven number of male and female contestants left for the Final, then I'd look forward to at least 2 more guy eliminations.
Unfortunately from the departure list, and past history - which can not be simply discarded, I'd expect Sydney and certain FM cast members to be there at the end regardless of the twist, if there is one.
A lot of the so called veterans have been "knocked off" and perhaps by the rookies who have been considered expendable. I can only imagine how tricky these face offs are if people like Evelyn, Wes, Tonya, and Veronica have been eliminated. I really hope they are doing something stupid like "It's a Wrap" or "Spinning around: and eating cookies until someone vomits, etc.
[B][U]I[/U][/B] had a feeling that there was favor towards J/K/E by BMP, but not to this extent.

Okay that's cool. Thanks for clarifying. Everything I post is just speculation and my observations which are at times supported by things castmembers have said. I've said that from the beginning, so let me make that clear people! lol. I can't say 100% factual ofcourse because I don't know them and I'm aware that some castmembers are either joking or just trying to be insulting, so that's why I say, "it's what I believe". And there are certain things that lead me to believe what I believe. That's all. Are we only allowed to post the facts here? I'm new and I just want to make sure I'm not breaking any rules by my speculating is all.
[quote=Isabella;76200]. Are we only allowed to post the facts here?[/quote]
This is a speculation thread based on spoilers, so to the extent that speculation is largely guess work (even when informed), facts are hard to come by. Over time, you will discover who has the goods and who doesn't. People will make similar assessments of what you will write.
Happy posting.
[quote=faceless;76164]They arrived and started filming a while ago.[/quote]
They probably spent the first day or 2 filming the opening credits and perhaps started the challenge itself the Monday of 5/4. Just a guess based on past challenge info I've read in these threads.
someone once mentioned that the cast doesn't film on the weekends. IDK.
However, if this is correct or close, then I will say that based on the number of eliminations thus far and the remaining time left, if 6/5 is the departure date from Thailand, then I'd say that they're a boatload of eliminations/departures left.
Pardon my math, but if they have been 14 reported sightings as of 5/24 and the challenge is 20 days in (5/4), that leaves me to believe that they will be up to 6 more eliminations and 4 of the 6 will be guys, if BMP decides to follow final challenge format and keep the number of M/F contestants the same.
I hope there is a twist this time, and almost would be surprised if they weren't one assuming that the challenge was a 2 team champs vs challengers format and the way the eliminations thus far have panned out. just by the way the teams were stacked, I wasn't sure that the teams would stay intact during the entire challenge.
Colhutta still being there is a surprise given he probably is considered disposable fodder. However, my boy Darrell is still there so despite the negative results thus far, I don't expect to see him on the departure list.
[quote=Henry;76250]the names of the team "Champions" and "Challengers" were already release? or is just speculation?
Thanks[/quote]
Still speculation :)
[quote=OtherPplsDrama;76251]Still speculation :)[/quote]
Speculation, but I'm starting to believe that this will be the format. If so, then all I can hope for by BMP is for a twist to where the team with the fewest members at the end or near it, can pick a member from the opposing team to join them.
I'd get a BMP tattoo for someone like Johnny or Evan being picked by the other team before the final and then being selected for the last face off before the final and losing.
Pipe dreams!

All I ask for is a season finale that isn't flat-out boring, anti-climactic, and one-sided like the Island's.
